A message in clouds to the city of angels.
Did anyone see it from the ground today?
The pilot next to me commented that he had never seen skywriting from above before.

I saw it from Marina del Rey. I thought Terrell Owens was trying to get our attention.

Imagine the fun it was to do that! You had good luck to see these man-made clouds from above. You often get to see great things from the plane, Steve!

Certainly a different perspective!
I came across something today, in my friend, labspics stream, ( http://www.flickr.com/photos/labspics/ ). Thought you may like to check it out. If so, it’s here: http://www.dobfoundation.nl/nl/nieuws/2008/prototype_u-specs -
Right you are – a new design for universal glasses – very cool.
I have an early prototype of another approach on display in my office:
These are user-adjustable eyeglasses from Adaptive Eyecare, a U.K. based company seeking to provide inexpensive vision correction for the billion people that need still it (according to World Health Organization estimates).
Using elastic mylar lenses filled with a highly refractive silicone oil, they created $5 glasses that the user can adjust for each eye, without an optometrist or expensive lens grinding infrastructure. One product fits all, and can even be shared.
